Re: Game Industry Layoffs - WTF?
when the shareholders and CEO's pilfer the majority of profits it's not "stretching themselves to thin" to have hired too many people. It's just greed. The game is to make as much money as possible for the people at top, and the artist and other employees are numbers which serve that game. It's not like profits are razor… -

Re: Attn: DIY game makers, how did you learn (the coding bits)?
